Done Nancy! Thank you for posting. Bees are such an important part of our ecosystem, that not protecting them menas death. I remember reading that life can go on without any species except insects, they're the only ones that at the end, they're the ones that really matter, life depends on them.

Thanks Nancy. I signed this the minute I got their email alert, it had me that much more outragious because of our German Bayer producing this evil stuff, makes me feel ashamed.

Personally, I have not used a Bayer product in over 30 years. This company was allowed to come into the US from Germany after WWII. They were originally called Bavarian Pharmaceuticals. They supplied Hitler with his own personal drugs, as well as Dr. Mengele for his sick experiments on humans.
Nothing this company does surprises me.

This is nothing to fool around with or be taken lightly. Bees are EXTREMELY important for worldwide food production. They are the most important pollinators we have. For BAYER to produce this chemical is immoral.

BAYER is nothing short of a criminal operation with no concern for what they do to the world's food supply, much less the suffering and death of an essential and beautiful species! Noted and already signed. Thanks, Nancy.

Signed. I have little faith in heads of government agencies. I feel most of them are corrupt and put the interests of big corporation above the health and welfare of animals and people.

More @#*^^y poisons released in our environment is unnecessary. Short lived natural agents (nicotine laced insecticidal soap, for example) and biocontrols like predatory insects should be parts of a sustainable agriculture model that supports natural components including fertilising insects and weed-eating animals.

I would think if the bees are gone....we will be too. Can't understand how government cannot see how important this is. U.S. only so couldn't sign but here in spirit.

When you think here in California commercial crops such as almonds, peaches, soybeans, apples, pears, cherries, raspberries, blackberries, cranberries, watermelons, cantaloupes, cucumbers and strawberries all pollinated almost exclusively by bees. While other insects can be used in many instances other are not as prolific and will not visit the plants near them at all.

S&N. Bees are so important to our environment. The pesticides putting them at danger should be strictly controlled or banned. Also, what are these pesticides doing to other good insects or people that handle them? It can't be good. Thanks Nancy.

Why is something so important only for people on the U:S:A to sign ? Life all throughout the planet is at risk.... and not only plants life as I'm reading without plants, no life is possible !!!

Noted, signed & posted to FB. People have no idea how important bees are to the ecological aspect of the earth. And they have no idea what it would be like without them. PLEASE PEOPLE...EDUCATE YOURSELVES.
